Shiv Sena (UBT) leader and former Maharashtra Minister Aaditya Thackeray on Tuesday targeted the International Cricket Council (ICC) for choosing Ahmedabad as the venue for the T20 Cricket World Cup Final. While slamming the BCCI, the son of Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray alleged favouritism towards a specific state in a global sport event.
While taking it to social media platform X, Aaditya Thackeray asked why Mumbai can't be the venue for the T20 World Cup final to be held early next year.
